abstract
A simulation can stand its ground against experiment only if its prediction uncertainty is known. The unknown accuracy of interatomic potentials (IPs) is a major source of prediction uncertainty, severely limiting the use of large-scale classical atomistic simulations in a wide range of scientific and engineering applications. Here we explore covariance between predictions of metal plasticity, from 178 large-scale ($\sim 10^8$ atoms) molecular dynamics (MD) simulations, and a variety of indicator properties computed at small-scales ($\leq 10^2$ atoms). All simulations use the same 178 IPs. In a manner similar to statistical studies in public health, we analyze correlations of strength with indicators, identify the best predictor properties, and build a cross-scale ``strength-on-predictors'' regression model. This model is then used to quantify uncertainty over the statistical pool of IPs. Small-scale predictors found to be highly covariant with strength are computed using expensive quantum-accurate calculations and used to predict flow strength, within the uncertainty bounds established in our statistical study.

Fundamental Microscopic Properties as Predictors of Large-Scale Quantities of Interest: Validation through Grain Boundary Energy Trends
A regression model trained on interatomic-potential data predicts the same grain boundary energy scaling from fundamental properties that density functional theory finds, supporting the use of potential ensembles as s...
